Two of the nine projects awarded Proof‑of‑Concept Grants are Myfab Uppsala users: Cecilia Persson and Daniel Brandell, Uppsala University.
The purpose of the grants is to bridge the gap from academic basic research to innovations in materials science for sustainability.
Proof-of-Concept grants awarded in the 2025 call in materials science:
- Cecilia Persson, Uppsala University
Amorphous-matrix degradable alloys for sustainable bone repair solutions - Daniel Brandell, Uppsala University
LiFILLERS – Li Based Ceramic Fillers for Next Generation Battery Polymer Electrolytes
The aim is to give researchers the opportunity to further develop their early discoveries in scientific projects toward innovation and commercialization. The call included innovations in materials science in a broad sense, but they must focus on a specific aspect of sustainability.
Since 2017, a total of 148 Proof-of-Concept grants have been awarded.
